New Life

Chapter 17

~Talia~

We had just finished a HUGE and very energetic number. Me, Azura and Rahjiah go to change in a dressing room to our next outfits, Tobias and Oliver go to their dressing room, The Rockers are keeping the crowd entertained as with the way Azura is.....it sometimes takes a bit of time. 

Anyway Azura sits down to restyle her wig, she was heaving for breath and panting says "holy geez....that was....a mad routine" "you shouldn't be doin the stunts ya doin, ya need to take it easy coz the songs are already high energy and powerful" I say concerned, Rahjiah then puts the portable SAT's monitor that Jennifer gave us on Azura's finger and shows me the results, I kneel down to have a proper look at the results and see that Azura's oxygen level is very low so I look a Rahjiah and tilt my head to the oxygen tank that we got given for when Azura is performing then look back at Azura and calmly say "Azzy, your oxygen is on the low side so we're just giving ya your oxygen while we're gettin sorted with outfits" Rahjiah brings the tank and mask over so I put the oxygen mask on Azura and put it to the level we've been told to put it on "no sis, let's just carry on" Azura protests "we will but first we need an outfit change and you need a rest, I don't care how long it takes, The Rockers are keepin the crowd entertained" I reply but Azura still having none of it "they payed to see us, The Rockers were just meant for warm up, that song and outfit change" "you need to take it easy sis" as I finished trying to reason with Azura, Oliver and Tobias enter.

Azura was still being REALLY stubborn "NO! I gotta keep goin....I'm fine Tally" I then start getting really frustrated "I'm bein serious now sis, no more stunts. We finish this set then we call it a day, also this is getting cut short" "NO! We're doin the lot, that what the fans payed for" I hate how stubborn Azura is.....why can't she see I'm frustrated because I love her and I'm worried sick about her? I've got to be just as stubborn now, I'm standing my ground "NO AZZY! For once in your life you will listen to me! You WILL have a rest before we perform anymore!" Azura then gets very defiant and takes off her oxygen mask standing up, I stand up as well "put that back on" I demand, Azura challenging me yells "NO! You're my twin! You ain't the boss of me!" I've had it at this point, I love her the world but I really wish she wasn't so stubborn.

~Oliver~

"NO! You're my twin! you ain't the boss of me!" Azura yells as she challenges Talia with her stubbornness "I'm being serious, just listen to me!" Talia shouts as me, Rahjiah and Tobias look at each other awkwardly as we see this 'heated conversation' happening, Azura then shouts "NO! Why should I?" Talia then shouts back in frustration "JUST DO IT!" Azura wasn't backing down "NO! Why should I?" Talia then has tears forming in her eyes, but she holds them back looking like she's ready to breakdown "coz you're f*****g terminal!" Talia shouts, Azura drops her guard took aback at what she's just been told "What? What do you mean?" Talia then starts to break "exactly what I said....your cancers are terminal" "you mean..." but I cut Azura off and ask "she's going to die?" I knew the answer but didn't want to believe it "yeah, unless they can find a match for her organs that have cancer, the cancers will kill Azzy" Talia wipes away the tears that had escaped, Azura then says "why am I having the treatments? I thought it was workin" Talia shakes her head "no it weren't....it's not been working to cure you" Azura trying to stay composed then asks "so why am I still havin treatment? I've lost my hair for nothin, wearin the hats and hoods, an havin s**t days, all of it for nothin?" Talia fixes Azura's wig as it slipped out of place, Azura sits down then Talia kneels to Azura's level "it's to give you longer in hope that they find a match" Talia then hugs Azura who is frozen in disbelief, with much sadness I say "it's time for Rah's aerial performance, we'll make it last as long as possible" and I leave followed by Rahjiah "love ya chick" Tobias adds with just as much sadness as me and Rahjiah "see yas in a bit after your little talk" and we all leave.
